Do not do business with Roman and the Ripe Off Ninja Floor Turtles!!
Roman did my floors several years ago, was above average job. Roman made several mistakes and had to come back a couple of times to fix problem. Very unreliable! I called to get a quote for more new flooring, It took a week for him to get to my house and still waiting for quote. When I reached out to Roman his text message was (I’m not sure when I can finish your quote. I'm very busy with work and paperwork lately. I suggest you find someone else to do your project!) Don't trust him with your floors...Total lack of professionalism!

We hired Roman at the recommendation of my sister who had new floors installed by The Flooring Ninja. My house is almost 100 years old and the floor is the original oak slat wood floor. There were dark spots from water damage in several places, and the previous owners had glued oak parquet tiles to the original floor in the dining room. I had previously removed the tiles and much of the glue but there was still a lot of glue remaining. Fortunately the floor had not been refinished much over the years so it was still sufficiently thick to allow them to do all of the sanding required to bring it back. Roman and Max spent 2 days sanding to remove the glue and water damage before proceeding to the staining and finishing. The finished floor is amazing! I thought we would be settling for a finished floor with a "distressed" look due to the original condition, but it looks new. Even the painter we had in to do the painting after the floor was finished asked if it was a brand new floor that we had installed. I would highly recommend The Flooring Ninja to anyone who is looking to have their floors refinished. Their work is very high quality and their professionalism was impeccable.

The Flooring Ninja lived up to his name. When he entered our home it was filled with terrible ceramic. He worked quickly, professionally, and left us with amazing floors. Roman and his team worked extremely hard. We had approx. 720 SQ FT of Brazilian Cherry refinished and approx. 770 SQ. FT. of new Brazilian Cherry installed. The new floor was blended into the existing floor beautifully. I could not be happier with the floors. They left the house extremely clean and dust free. The photo taken from our upstairs shows both the new and existing flooring how well they came together. I would highly recommend The Flooring Ninja for flooring.

After doing some pretty extensive research on Houzz and Angie’s List, I found the Flooring Ninja. My husband called Roman and left a message, and he returned our call within minutes providing us with a rough estimate for the job. Within a few days, Roman came out and gave us an official estimate after seeing what the job entailed. Once I met Roman and spoke with him about our project, I knew that we were in good hands. We received the official estimate a day later.
Like most people looking to do some home improvement work, we wanted to do our homework. While we did have other contractors bid out our job, we passed on them. Although Roman was not the cheapest, he also wasn’t the most expensive. As soon as I got to talk with Roman and hear him out, I just knew he was our guy!
Our project with Roman included hardwood installation in our dining room, family room, living room and foyer. They removed carpet and tile. We also did new baseboard moulding on our entire first floor. Roman walked me through what the project would look like, how he would do it, and provided a finish day for when we could expect the project to be completed. Roman is a very smart man that thinks everything through very carefully and calculated.
Roman and his team are extremely hardworking. If we saw them take breaks, it was maybe 10 minutes and then they were back to work for the rest of the day. Dedicated guys!
When Roman and his team finish for the day, they left our house clean and tidy. We never walked into a mess. Roman and his team also arrive when they say they are going to, and often stay longer to get more work done. Roman and his team are incredibly kind. Roman truly cares about his work and making his clients happy.
I think the hardest part of hardwood floor installation is picking a stain color. I can be indecisive, and Roman was extremely patient with me. He mixed more stain colors than I ever could have imagined and really helped me throughout the process. He didn’t get frustrated when I seemed to be all over the place with picking a color! He stayed at our house for few hours that night to make sure I was satisfied with a color. He let my husband and I take two days to decide on the color, and didn’t rush us at all. I absolutely LOVE the color we chose!
My husband and I have NO complaints. We are 110% satisfied with Roman and his team. Roman and his team exceeded our expectations and left us with a beautiful home. Doing this type of work is an investment, and Roman is the guy to help you make this improvement! Roman does amazing work! He is a true craftsman! His precision and attention to detail are top notch. If you are contemplating at all, stop your researching, pick up the phone and call Roman. I sifted through so many contractors to find him. The leg work is done. Hire Roman! You will not regret it! He is definitely worth it!!! Thank you again Roman, for providing us with such a beautiful home. You rock!

While searching for a flooring contractor on Houzz and other websites, multiple positive reviews of The Flooring Ninja's work kept popping up, which convinced me to contact Roman for a quote. Roman responded promptly and I was very impressed with his professionalism.
Roman was direct and patient while answering my many questions and concerns. His obvious knowledge and attention to detail was reassuring. I knew the minute we met Roman that he would be the right person to work in our home.
We had originally planned to have prefinished hardwood flooring installed as opposed to unfinished flooring, as I was leery about the mess of sanding and the odors of staining and sealing, as well as the disruption to our household.
We discussed the different methods with Roman and he assured us that every step of the process, which would include dust-free sanding (and it truly is!) and odor-free stain would result in a high quality, attractive floor which would last many years.
We put our trust in him and chose unfinished red oak flooring, to be stained and sealed. Roman recommended that he install a new layer of subfloor in order to ensure stability and a strong base for the new flooring, as our subfloor was original dating back to 1962. Roman and his crew examined every square inch of the original subfloor and corrected squeaky boards prior to laying the subfloor layer. (Another contractor did not even recommend additional subfloor in his quote).
The flooring was then installed in our living room, dining room and hall. 7 thresholds and 2 doorways were custom fitted to provide a smooth transition into each room. We ended up also having Roman install trim and baseboard throughout.
Roman custom-mixed the perfect blend of stain for our flooring and it is beautiful. He created the exact shade I had in mind and I could not be happier.
Roman and his crew were courteous, prompt, and respectful of our property. At the end of each day the work area was tidy and clean. My fears of a messy project were never realized, everything went smoothly.
The finished project has exceeded my expectations.
Roman is truly a craftsman! He was honest and open with us, and I will not hesitate to recommend him.

Roman was very great and accommodating! We had a two week window where no one was going to be working in the house and the flooring ninjas were able to come within those two weeks. The hardwood floors were very scratched and faded and they did a fabulous job refinishing them. They got rid of all the scratches and made them look brand new! He also went out of his way to refinish some small shelves and do all the thresholds. I would defiently recommend the flooring ninja to refinish any floors!

I selected The Flooring Ninja from Houzz...and it was a great choice. Roman was not the cheapest but the quality of his work was exceptional. Initially, I was only going to have the first floor done, but as I got to know Roman and saw his level of expertise and his work ethic, I had him do the stairs and the second floor. Roman had to rebuild the stairs and they look absolutely beautiful.
Roman was very helpful in selecting the color of stain for the floors and was very willing to make up many different samples. He also did an excellent job replacing all my baseboards. Roman is very professional, easy to work with and does a high quality job.
I would highly recommend Roman, The Flooring Ninja.

Roman's work is top notch! His attention to detail and desire to ensure quality work is superb. I knew from the initial meeting that our floors would turn out great; however, the end result exceeded our expectations! Roman was always very respectful and professional. He answered all of our questions and gave us a very fair price. If we ever need to install or refinish wood flooring in the future, we will definitely contact Roman!

Roman did a great job!
We had couple of other companies for the estimate and we were told that some work could not be done. Roman stated differently and stood behind his word. He made our home floors look beautiful. Every single guest that came to our house complimented our floors. Roman did an amazing job helping us choose the color of the floor and the size of the baseboards. We love his work. It is absolutely worth the money we paid.
We highly recommend Roman as the true and passionate professional.

Roman and his team did an outstanding job for us installing hardwood flooring on the first floor level of our home. The work included removal of a worn marble entry that was set in two inches of concrete, leveling uneven floors in three rooms, and refinishing stairs. It was decided during the course of installation that the existing baseboards and shoe were not worth saving, so Roman installed all new materials. When the work was done, Roman noticed an imperfection in a central area. Rather than trying to patch the flaw which might be noticeable, he rebuffed and applied a fourth coat of finish to the entire job. He is a true craftsman.
